Love being able to jump back into the blogging world. I've missed this.

Making: a mess in my room going through and putting summer clothes away and getting winter clothes out and ready to be washed.

Drinking: Ningxia Red and a Zyng. I really would like to go to bed but definitely need to get some things finished.

Reading: i have a few that I've started and just really need to pick one I think to focus and then finish it. I've been working on Love warrior, You Before Me, Uninvited, Trim healthy Mama and Food Chaining.

Wanting: my walls and kitchen cabinets painted in this house. Hoping I can get this done by spring break.

Looking: At the leaves falling off the trees and seeing the fall colors still up! Hoping they stay up for a little bit longer.

Deciding: Lots. Lots of medical decisions. Hoping to get some things finalized and cleared up. Deciding on Christmas gifts and if I should make some or buy and needing to get started on that soon.

Enjoying: The show This is Us. Seriously. So good. Reminds me of Parenthood. Love the real ness of this.

Waiting: To finally see Mike. It's been four days in a row and besides passing each other in the morning when I leave for work, it would be nice to have a full conversation in person.

Liking: The way the boys have been playing and helping each other lately.

Loving: Friends! Online friends. Real world friends. Family friends. Childhood friends. Love being able to connect in person or over social media.

Pondering: Should I just start painting the living room or talk to Mike about it first. Lol!

Listening: To the boys sound machine and wanting to start listening to Christmas music now!

Buying: Today it was groceries and soon it will be Christmas gifts.Hoping: For 20 lbs to magically disappear.

Wearing: Mizzou sweats and sweatshirt.

Disliking: The election and hate it has brought.

Opening: new opportunities and a new mindset on doing what is best for our family.

Giggling: When listening to the boys play and hearing the different scenarios they are making up.

Feeling: Blessed and tired.

Embracing: Changing seasons. Where we are in this moment.

Man. Time flies.

Look how little they were. Wanting and needing to get back to documenting our lives here.
